Question

vertical line 2 x plus 1 vertical line equals 5
If  and  are the solutions to the equation above, what is the value of.

hintHint:

We have given an equation vertical line 2 x plus 1 vertical line equals 5

We have to find the value ofvertical line a minus b vertical line, if a and b are solution of the equation.

The correct answer is: 5


    The given equation is .

    Now iftable attributes columnalign right left right left right left right left right left right left columnspacing 0em 2em 0em 2em 0em 2em 0em 2em 0em 2em 0em end attributes row cell 2 x plus 1 greater than 0 end cell row cell x greater than fraction numerator negative 1 over denominator 2 end fraction end cell end table
    Mod will open as positive
    So,
    2 x plus 1 equals 5
    2X=4
    If 2 x plus 1 less than 0
    x less than fraction numerator negative 1 over denominator 2 end fraction
    Mod will open as negative
    negative left parenthesis 2 x plus 1 right parenthesis equals 5
    negative 2 x minus 1 equals 5
    table attributes columnalign right left right left right left right left right left right left columnspacing 0em 2em 0em 2em 0em 2em 0em 2em 0em 2em 0em end attributes row cell negative 2 x equals 6 end cell row cell x equals negative 3 end cell end table
    Now the difference between them will be
    vertical line minus 3 minus 2 vertical line equals 5
    Hence,  5 is the Answer.
